 You have to be willing to do some climbing to find genepy flowers. These Alpine herbs grow at very high elevations of 2,400 meters or more. The golden buds of the genepy plant are made into a liqueur of the same name. This herbal mountain dew; genepy or genepi des Alpes, is a natural elixir indigenous to the western Alps. The genepy plant comes from the wormwood family, more specifically, Artemisia genipi, glacialis, and mutellina. Even though a wide assortment of these herbal plants dot the mountains and valleys throughout the region, only these three varieties are harvested for the liqueur. |
